Trump Executive Order Requires Government to Rename AI as Super Intelligence

On September 30, 2026, The Verge reported that US President Trump signed an executive order requiring federal official policy websites, policy documents, and press releases to stop using the terms artificial intelligence or AI, replacing them with Super Intelligence, and stating that officials should no longer use the term AI on such occasions either. On October 9, The Verge further analyzed the executive order's implementation progress and resistance: after its release, CAISI was renamed CAISSI, and Department of Justice press releases have adopted the new term; tech figures such as Musk, Bezos, Jensen Huang, and Altman voiced support for the renaming, but OpenAI said it would not change its name. The Verge argued that Trump's push for this linguistic makeover is unlikely to succeed. On October 12, The Verge editor Terrence O'Brien analyzed that Silicon Valley giants are following Trump's renaming proposal one after another; the White House executive order requires government agencies to use the new term and labels those who keep using the old name as "enemies."
